DENNY In JAIL.
Captured Near knights Landing by
YOlo Deputy Sheriff

captured Near knights Landing by 4,
YOio Deputy Sheriff
Fred l. Denny, who stole a little girl
from her home up the river on Monday
last, treated her in the most beastial man
ner in this city that night and then ran
away, has been arrested, and is now lodged
in the City Prison. Chief of Police Dill
man dropped on Dennys trail, and the
latter was yesterday arrested near Knights
Landing by Deputy Sheriff Andy Kness.
At noon yesterday the officer telegraphed
Denny's capture, and he arrived in this
city on the $40 train. There was but little
chance for him to escape, for his photo
graph and description had been forwarded
TO all the officers and detectives throughout
the State, and Chief Dillman offered a
liberal reward for his apprehension. At
the time of his arrest he was making his
way westward through one of the large
grain fields of Charles F. Reed He took
his capture with
GREAT GOODNESS,
And said he was not afraid to face the
music. Last evening he was visited in his
cell by REcoRD-UNIoN reporter. He said
he heard the RECORD UNION OF Saturday
olacken the character of the little girl
whose utter ruin he had wrought. He said
when he goes on the stand he will tell
what be knows about the girl. When re-
minded that the girl was only IA years of
age, simple, unsophisticated, half-witted,
he sNEERINGLy REPLIED:
Fourteen - - Girls of that age
know more than men of 90" He then
stated that he had been on familiar terms
with the girl for year past, and named the
times and places. He also said the mother
was aware of this illicit intimacy that she
consented to his taking her away III the night
in question and that he ate supper with the
family that evening. He said, 1" / intended
TO marry the girl and am willing to do so
yet" He said, finally, that he was drink
ing on the day he went TO the girls home,
and had been drinking quite heavily for
the three days previous. He said Flum-
merhad nothing to do with the case more
than to accompany him. He says the
reason he skipped out was that he heard
the girls uncle was on his trail and would
shoot him CD sight. He first went to Fol-
som, then to Rocklin, from there to Marys-
vile and came down to Knights Landing
on the steamer. He is quite defiant, and
says he has done nothing for which he can
he convicted, and says he don't think news
papers and individuals should take such an
active int est in his matrimonial affairs.
The Chief has discovered additional testi-
mony against the graceless scamp which,
when brought before the Grand Jury, no
doubt will secure the procuring of an in
dictment against him.

Robbers on the Auburn Road.

On Saturday evening two highwaymen
held up" farmer named r. Lauppee
about a quarter of mile from the Twelve
mile House, on the Antelope road. 1t
happened to be Mr.. Lauppee's good fortune
TO have only few dollars about his per-
son, all of which the road agents appro-
priated according to the code. Elated with
their success, the same parties on Sunday
evening, at the same place where Mr. Laup-
pee was robbed, concluded to levy and col
lect an assessment from r. D. Murphy,
who resides near the Twelve-mile House.
Mr.. Murphy, at the time of the attempted
robbery, was driving along the road when
tall, lank six-footer stepped out of the
willows on the roadside III front of the
horses and demanded a halt q request
which was no sooner made than obeved.
Mr.. Murphy took in the situation at a
glance and concluded that he would take q
hand in the matter himself, so dropping
the lines he instantly raised Winchester
repeating rifle. which he happened to have
with him, and fired three shots in quick
succession at the robber, who took to his
heels like scared wolf. In another direc-
ton Mr.. Murphy witnessed robber No 9
beating a hasty retreat through the under
brush to more secure quarters. A survey
of the battlefield Yesterday did not disclose
any blood spots on the ground or dead men
in the brush. Their camping ground was
the only thing discovered, which was found
vacated

SCARCITY OF LABoRERs.-It is not at all
unfrequent to see persons in this city who
claim that they cannot get work, and
hence are compelled TO ask for food to eat
This pretense is sham, and no such per-
son deserves, at the present time, the least
particle OF consideration, if they are able
bodied. w +. Knox has advertised in
several papers for hands to work on the
railroads which he is constructing, but is
unable to get half the number of men de-
sired. Any person who can carry bucket
of water, or help lift a tie or a rail- can
now get work by applying to Mr.. Knox,
who is here seeking help, and if men will
persist in going about begging when they
can have work. they SHOULD be compelled
TO labor with the chain-gang or some other
similar choice place suited to their peculiar
genius and constitution.

An unusually large number of prisoners
were in the dock yesterday at the Police
Court, and three DRINKS, named James
Daily, Tom Curtis and William Thomas,
enriched the clerk by forfeiting their de-
posts. All Sam, charged with battery by
d. Gardner, pleaded not guilty, and asked
for a continuance till Wednesday. The
request was granted. David Mcintosh and
James Robinson, booked for being va
grants, were convicted, and were sent to
the county Jail for ninety days John
Daily, Fred Miller and William Farrell.
arrested for sleeping in railroad cars, will
have more comfortable lodgings in the
county Jail for the next three months.
George Smith, who was one of the gang.
was not ready, and will be sentenced to-
day. William A. Baily, the man who
forged the check on D. o. Mills bank, was
called to answer to the charge of obtaining
money by false pretenses, q very light
charge. MIR. Weissemann gave a very brief
outline of his dealings with Baily. The
defendant had nothing to say, except that be
was drunk when he committed the act.
Judge Buckley held the defendant over to
the Superior Court, with bail fixed at $500
Ed. Flummer, charged with seduction for
the purpose of prostitution, was present
continuance until Thursday. and it was SO
ordered. Annie Hall, booked for being a
common drunk, stated that the charge was
entirely false. and that she merely took
brandy to subdue an attack Of cramps. The
last time Mrs. Hall appeared in Court she
said she used the Yhiskey for chills, and
was allowed to go. Judge Buckley thought
that if the defendant was subject to
cramps she should need some care, and or
dered her sent to the county jail for one
month. The case of Charles Flower,
charged OF battery, occupied most of the
time, several witnesses making lengthy
statements. The defendant was found
guilty, and will receive sentence to-day.
\ compromise was affected in the Thos.
Shields case, the charge of assault with a
deadly weapon being reduced to that OF
battery, on condition that the defendant
would plead guilty. He will receive SEN
tence to-day.

ants. Their feeling organs appear to
be their antenn@. AS they move
about and explore, their antenn@ are
always very active, and projected be-
fore them. They stop here and stop
there, and move these sensitive or
gans as if their whole attention were
directed to the impressions received
by them, and it appears they decide
what course to take according to the
impressions conducted by their an
tenn@. When two ants of the same
kind going in opposite directions
meet they never "cut' each other
and pass on, but invariable stop and
have chat, so to speak, and COM
municate to each other news. How
they do this / cannot tell, nor can /
tell exactly how light communicates

Ants and Their Ways.

Much has been said about the in
dustry and sagacity. Of the ant. DIR.
Banavia, in recent number of the
Gardeners Chronicle, relates his OBJ
seryations on the habits of ants in In
d dia, in which he says:
Son one occasion l killed wasp
the small yellow wasp that is so
common in India. Soon after, 1 OBJ
served an ant moving about on the
sill of window. 1t struck me as
good opportunity to observe what
steps this ant would take if brought
in contact with the dead wasp. I
placed the wasp in the path of the
ant and watched the result. The ant,
on finding the wasp, climbed over it
and explored it thoroughly in all di-
rections. Having satisfied itself that
this was a good find, it descended,
and ran down the wall of the win
dow and across q very rough grass
mat made of the Saccharum moonja
(the moonja or surput mating of In
dia.) 1t galloped across the room
over this rough surface as hard as it
could go in a particular direction,
and disappeared under the wooden
sill of a door. / still watched to see
what would happen. Presently a
long string Of ants in single file came
out and followed the exact course
that the foraging ant had taken.
They crossed the mat in the same
course, and went up the wall straight
to the wasp. ] left them in peace,
and some time after found only the
shell Of the wasp. They had eaten
up all its interior and returned home.
1t is evident that single ants leave
the nest, as scouts or explorers, on
foraging expeditions, and 60 to long
distances. BY some scent left on their
course, they are able to retrace their
steps 10 their nest. The ants in the
nest, probably by some scent of the
body found which the exploring ant
brings with It, are made to under.
stand that something good to eat has
been found. Guided by the explor-
ing ant, or by the scent it may have
left in its track, the whole nest or a
portion of it sallies out, and goes
straight to the find. If the body
found is easily dragged home, the
column does so, in procession, some
preceding, some dragging and some
following the treasure. Otherwise
they set to and eat up what portions
they can of the thing found. This
trait in ants is most interesting. Sol
itary ants are seen in all directions
exploring and careering up and down
the stems and leaves of plants. Ii
they come across a flower with its
nectar approachable, that flower
quickly becomes crowded with other

The Postmaster at Lady Lake, Fla.

When a man has been snatched, as
1t were, from the very jaws of death,
and given new lease Of healthy life
by means Of simple remedy, it is
natural for him to be enthusiastic in
the praise of the means which deliv-
cred him from deadly peril, and in
his gladness of heart he Is anxious to
let the world participate in his joy,
and he will spread the "good news"
in order that others, who may be in
similar peril, may be restored to life
and renewed health by employing
the same means which gave him the
victory. This is again exemplified
In the following letter which the
Swift Specific Company have receiv-
ed from Mr.. B. H. Byrd, who Is the
postmaster at Lady Lake, Sumter
county, Fla, as well as a leading
merchant of that place. Under date
of May 4, 1887, he writes:
